So we played in the garage last night and it ended up working out pretty well. A good group of guys (and girl) and a fun game. I think the 25-50c NL stakes were just about right, too. The buyins and the blinds were cheap enough that none of the losers lost more than $100 but the no limit structure enabled people to make nice-sized bets when the situation arose. I think that next time I will ditch the 25c small blind and we'll just play with two 50c blinds instead and not bother with having quarters on the table.
As for me, I made a couple of good hands last night and even when I didn't I pulled off a couple of bluffs and stole some pots. And a couple of times I even caught in a bluffs that ended up paying off later. It was indeed a good night. In fact, I won $340 in 5 hours playing in a game with 50 cent blinds and a $40 buyin, so I am fairly pleased to be sure.
poor, poor, canonico... haven't you heard that I play too predictably? You obviously should have known that I was holding a heart in my hand. You should have been able to "predict" it.
Heart yes, but calling two all-ins with the third highest flush... oh wait, if I bring shills to the game, I can win money too... No, you played your opponents on that one well.. I cant believe you put your opponents on lower flushes though..
1.) Tom 2.) Sal 3.) Johnny Mac 4.) Some guy named "Anonymous" who looked suspiciously like Canonico... right down to the part about getting beat by me. Hmmm.
